cron activates early

["Sherman, Michael (GE Energy)" <michael.sherman@og.ge.com>]

Hi all.

I have a little problem. The date command shows the right time, however the
cron scheduler
activates 5 hours earlier than needed. I am pretty sure I set the time to US
Eastern during
installation, and I even reran base-config to verify that.
Any ideas?

Thanks in advance
Mike
